The concern raised suggests that such a policy might not align well with the operational practices of miners, who are unlikely to enforce checks against address reuse. This approach could pose challenges, including impacts on compact block reconstruction and nodes' ability to estimate fees accurately.
Further, it's proposed that instead of imposing strict limitations on address reuse, alternative strategies for mitigating the risks associated with it should be encouraged. One such strategy mentioned is the adoption of silent payments as a safer method to address the issue. The dialogue opens up a space for further suggestions on how to handle the problem, indicating a preference for solutions that do not compromise essential network functions or the efficiency of transaction processing.
